Notice to Consumers Regarding Kosher Poultry

As the
Greater Toronto Area’s community kosher certifier, and Canada’s largest kosher
certifier, we at COR – Kashruth Council of Canada share the concern of kosher
consumers across Canada regarding the closure of Chai Kosher Poultry. Our
primary allegiance is to Canada’s kosher consumers, and we are distressed that
the supply and selection of kosher poultry may decrease.

We have been
working diligently with various community stakeholders to advocate on behalf of
the kosher community to request that our country’s regulatory agencies do what
they can to grant the necessary approvals to increase the supply and selection
of kosher poultry. We are heartened by the fact that there are entrepreneurs
who have expressed interest in filling the void left by Chai Kosher Poultry,
and whichever groups are ultimately successful, they will receive our
unwavering support.

We are confident
that as a kosher community, together we will successfully navigate this situation.
We want to assure you that your representatives at COR-Kashruth Council of
Canada are working intently on your behalf to help increase the supply and
selection of kosher poultry in Canada. As always, if you have any questions or
concerns, do not hesitate to contact us.
